Please vote for HB 342 and allow Utah to set our own standards for public school. Utah has always been able to educate our children beyond the national level. We have a high gradutaion rate, we have one of the best rates for educated women and a community that is actively involved in the school systems. Please do not allow us to be shackled to common core or NCLB, or any other acronym that takes our rights away to decide how to best educate our children. Allow 342 to go through and become a leader among states about best practices with our children.
